A business is just a hobby if you’re not making money. ⚡️If you’re not making money, you can’t scale your impact! ⚡️

At all times, we need to gauge the age of the industry that we’re in! 👩‍💻If we’re in an older industry that’s set in its ways, you may need to have two businesses at the same time - the one you’re in now, and the one that’s going to put the old industry out of business. 🕒You want to position yourself to be the one that puts yourself out of business. 

I have a client with 4 physical retail locations. He knows that online retail is coming up on brick-and-mortar stores, so he’s begun an online business to supplement his retail locations. 

If you implement the right systems and strategies:
💸In the first year, you should be able to get your first $100,000 in revenue. 
💸1-3 years - $1,000,000 in revenue

You can achieve the financial freedom you desire and deserve with your business. With commitment and confidence, you can be in the successful percentage! 🙌
